The letters LII behind the female head have long been recognized as representing Caesar's age, thereby placing this issue firmly within the year 48 BC. Caesar's fifty-second birthday was on 13 July 48 BC; the battle at Pharsalus, the final major conflict between the Caesarian and Pompeian forces, occurred one month later.

From the 1930’s Collection of Robert W. Hubel of Michigan.

Julius Caesar traced his descent all the way back to the Trojan hero Aeneas, legendary founder of the Romans. Aeneas, in turn, was the product of a liaison between the goddess Venus and Anchises, a herdsman who was related to the Trojan royal family. In a scene recounted by Virgil in the Aeneid, when the Greeks torched Troy, Aeneas escaped from the burning city carrying the aged Anchises on his shoulder and the sacred Palladium, a cult statue of Pallas Athena rescued from the household shrine. The scene is depicted on the reverse of this denarius of Caesar, struck in 48-47 BC, at least two decades before the Aeneid was composed. Venus, the mother of Aeneas (and thus the divine antecedent of Caesar) appears on the obverse.

L. Pinarius Scarpus had been appointed by Antony to command his four legions in Cyrenaica against Octavian's African army, under the command of Cornelius Gallus. After learning of Antony's defeat at Actium, Scarpus transferred his allegiance to Octavian. This issue was struck shortly after the battle of Actium, the open hand signaling a gesture of friendship toward Octavian.

CHILE, Republic. 1818-present. Pattern AR Peso (27mm, 8.96 g, 6h). Santiago mint. Dated 1926 So.

From the Alexander Christopher Collection.

The wreath on the reverse of this pattern is not the normal laurel or oak wreath, but rather appears to be made of a brugmansia, also known as the ‘angel’s trumpet’ due to its distinct trumpet-shaped flowers. The brugmansia, native to South American, is among the most toxic ornamental plants.
